Morgana would take care of her Austrian mom's chickens. They had so many. Do these hens lay eggs that you must retrieve? It would be nice to have fresh eggs.
I vaguely remember chicken pictures from her :). Those hens lay eggs, but they hide the eggs. We did get about a dozen total. Now the owners are back. So we do not have to take care of the chickens anymore.
I would love fresh eggs from chickens, but I don't think I would enjoy taking care of them and cleaning up after them. Others probably feel the same about cats! At least you get eggs from the chickens :)
True! I do think those chickens do their own thing during the day, but you have to get them back inside at night (too cold, prowling foxes, etc.) and that seems to be the tricky part. Also, some of them do not get along with the others, so they start to fight. The eggs are wonderful. Too bad cats don't lay eggs.

DeleteYes! Too bad! :D I can imagine how tricky it could be to get them back in at night!
DeleteThere was one chicken that was always hiding :).
DeleteFunny!
